Bagpipes and Rock Music

Since they walked away with the top prize on the UK primetime TV talent show, When Will I Be Famous, in 2007, the Red Hot Chilli Pipers haven't stopped for a breath, other than to inflate their bagpipes! With the power of the Scottish bagpipes times three and accompanied by an amazing rock band , the Red Hot Chilli Pipers bring an unforgettable and unique sound fusing modern classics and rock anthems with their passion for the bagpipes.

Red Hot Chilli Pipers: Blast Live is a concert taped at Scotland’s Old Fruitmarket Glasgow that “blasts”the bagpipes into a new musical orbit. Formed in 2002, the Chillis have fast become a global phenomenon, taking their signature “Bagrock” sound to the masses and rocking far-flung shores from New York to Beijing and everywhere in between with their unique fusion of rocked-up bagpipes and clever covers of popular songs from all genres.

Red Hot Chilli Pipers: Blast Live is an invigorating and infectious performance that shows audiences how rockin’ and cool the bagpipes can actually be! The concert features a sizzling hot song list:
